E3 2014 round-up: Weird tales from Los Angeles

Had you been on the floor of the Los Angeles Convention Center this year, you would have heard one question, echoing from journalist to journalist: "This year feels a little ... weird, don't you think?" It's hard to put a finger on exactly why E3 2014 gave off a strange vibe, but darn it all, we're gonna try.

Here are some of the most eccentric, the most peculiar, most "hmm"-inducing stories of E3:

Pac-Man will appear in Super Smash Bros. If we hadn't seen it for ourselves, we'd have thought the same people lying to us about how to unlock Sonic in Melee were behind the announcement. Un. Ex. Pected.

There is a video game in development where players fight off extraterrestrials using steampunk weaponry assigned to them by President Abraham Lincoln. It's called Code Name: STEAM. Yup, real thing.

Nintendo's stockholders must have been pretty happy when the LA Times broke the news about them releasing a new PlayStation 4. What a twist!

People snapping photos of this perfectly normal dude. Seriously, what's up with that?
